Part 1: Presenting the armies - Jonatan's Ogre tribe

So here comes the blog's first duplicate army, rather impressive that almost all of us managed to choose different ones! 

I usually enjoy playing armies with a smaller model count and since i'm a rather slow painter and hobbyist that really fits me as well. I originally started to think about doing an ogre project when I saw Redbard games' kickstarter campaign for their old school inspired ogre range.

So when this project started up I saw it as a perfect opportunity to make it a reality. 

Since then I have fleshed out a lot of the army with other ogre models like the classic Jes Goodwin ogres as well as Golgfags ogres to try and create a good mix for the coming tribe. 

Most of them have faces that not even a mother could love, just the way ogres should look! The project itself will be focused on a tribal feel with beastmasters, shamans and maneaters to symbolize the less civilized nature of the ogres, at least as I see them. In addition no big boy army is complete without an even bigger boy so a giant will be accompanying the tribe on its quest for food and gold, but not necessarily in that order of course. The army will roughly look something like this when it's finished, hopefully! 

The army:

1 Shaman Champion 

1 Shaman Champion 

1 Battle Standard Bearer 

8 Ogres

4 Maneaters 

1 Beastmaster with 4 sabertusks
